One area many customers often forget is water quality.

  • 40 percent of all foodborne illnesses reported in this country are traced to foodservice.

    If you have not cleaned your Ice Machine in the last 6 month or more, you can be heading for trouble in the future.

  • Many waterborne pathogens can also be responsible for what commonly considered a foodborne illness.

    Did you know.....?
    • Ice is 100 percent water.
    • Fountain beverages are 83 percent water.
    • Coffee is 99 percent water.
    • Soups and sauces are 50 to 80 percent water.

    Summer is here and things are heating up, So you may not think that your Ice Machine will have any problems, but in the summer when it gets hot and everything is dirty, guess what is going to go down?...YEP!! your ice machine.

    We can put you on a Preventive Maintenance (PM) program where we come by every 6 month and clean you Ice machine. Or if you are tiered of cleaning it yourself or you forget, let us keep it going for you.

    If your Ice Machine is really bad it may cost more to get it up to speed, If your machine goes down because it is dirty, it is NOT covered under factory warranty (this is the customers responsibility).

    What we can do for you now is give a 20% discount on the first cleaning at regular price with a signing of a PM cleaning program at $285.00 plus applicable taxes.
    You must mention or print this page and show service tech, befor work is started.

    What does this give you and mean?

    • Descale Ice Machine and Bin
    • Sanitize Ice Machine and Bin
    • Clean Condenser/Air Filter
    • Check Unit for Proper Operation

    We will check the water filters but the water filter cartridges and (replaceable) air filters are not included. Also the bin will need to be emptied prior to service (extra charges apply if we have to empty).

    We totally go through the ice machine and remove parts to clean. After a complete cleaning, we sanitize the ice machine and bin and check the unit for operation.
